Where's my Super-Chief?
It wasn't that long that I was lamenting the loss of Super-Chief. But I didn't let myself despair. Because the writers and editors of 52 swore that we hadn't seen the last of the Manitou Stone.
But earlier this week, while glancing at a gallery of 52 covers, it all came back to me. We haven't seen the Manitou Stone or Super-Chief since that fateful day. And I, for one, am pissed.
C'mon, DC. How can you let such a great character concept slip through your fingers? That brilliant costume! Those cool powers! ("The speed of a thousand deer... The strength of a thousand bears!") How can you just let him disappear, never to be seen again?
I won't stand for it, DC! Am I the only one who wants to see the fantastic Super-Chief again? Don't tell me I'm the only one. Don't let me be alone in this.

I hate to burst your bubble,but yes...I think you are alone in this.
I want more Super-Chief, if only to justify his appearance in 52 in the first place.
Maybe Ralph Dibny can help resurrect him or something.
Bite your tongue, Sally!
I loved Super-Chief and was very disappointed he was brought back only to be killed.
Not only do I want him back, I want to replace frikkin Geo-Force in the JLA.
I'm vaguely recalling a cartoon in the 80s with a guy with those kinds of powers. I think it was called Lone Star. Native American Texas Ranger. In space. With magic animal powers...
The Morrison interview up at newsarama indicates that he wanted to bring him back in issue #52. -alex p
That guy is pretty awesome now, that guy's a Super-Chief! The kind of guy you read about, in DC magazines! That guy is pretty cool now, that guy's a Super-Chief! I really like to see him, every time I read! He's all right, he's all right, that guy's all right with me! Yeah!
.......
I have no idea what brought that on.
Regardless, I do support the return of Super-Chief, simply because I don't think there are enough superheroes who wear magic buffalo hats.
Also, aside to lurkerwithout: Brave Starr is what you're thinking of.
He smothered his own Grandfather!
With love, Sally.
He smothered his own grandfather with love.
... and a pillow.
Brave Starr! Yeah, that was the dude...
